4. New Product Arrival - New Template: Welcome to this session, we are going to design a social media pose for
our new product arrival. So as we have used this specific template
in our last session. So at this time, we are going to do this custom. We are about to design
this from the beginning, and we got to know that
what elements being used, what alignments, and what sizing and how to design
this specific design. This is a predefined
template from Kenva, and now we are going to make on. So for starting it,
so I will simply open this design file and is a new
arrival, which we made it. So then I need to
create a new page. So I can click it from the ad page from right
here or from the down. So I will just simply
click here at a page. And here I have got a
very bland empty page. So for starting it, Here I can see that some
phone has been written. First, I will double
check that which phone is being used is Droid Serif is being used for u and I will double check
that all the font. So how do you check the
font, simply click to the font and on the
tool box at the top. It shows the name of the font. It's a new arrival, and all the fonts being used
is Dery troph itself. We will keep the name as it is. So I will select the font
from the left hand side, and I will start writing the font to my new
page, not to the previous. I will simply add
new arrival, right? So I have written a new arrival. I will just bring it
to the left side. And the next point, which we need is
a clin fit shirt. New arrivals to the
individual line itself. So I will just left aligned from the top left from the toolbox. I have aligned to the left line as there is also a left align, then I will bring it to the
left side, new or I will. Okay. So the next
thing we need to do is to add the slope like subtitle, which is slim fit shirt. I will take the text
and I will write here slim fit shirt. And I will make it left align, and this is the
fault which I will bring it here to the left side. Okay. Now I need to select the
font, which is being used, so I will simply select
to the font here, and I will select from the toolbox Toy drop
is showing to me here. And I can expand this to see that what options are,
and there is a board. I have selected the board. And how to confirm
that they use a bolt. Come back to the
previous design, click to the font. It will show you
the Droid serif, and there is a board itself. So that's how the variation
is being selected. And the subtitle is a regular. Once I selected
the cyl fi shirt, it's showing to me Droid is
being used and it's regular. So I will come back and I
will make sure that I being using a droid regular
or this as well. Okay. So the next thing is, I want to double check that what
are the features being used. So I I can see in the toolbox, it's italic also,
and it's a bolt pel. So I will select back again the form which I've
being written, and I will make it italic here. Right. And I will keep the
subtitle also as italic. So here we are ready with
a font and main title. Okay. So the next thing
we need to do is we need to bring these boxes
and these elements, which being used here. So this is the box, which is the which is the box which is above
or behind the new. That's what I needed. So for having it, I will simply select the elements
from the left tool box. I will click to the elements. Here. And once I click, it start showing me the
elements which will being used. So I will expend the
shapes as it's a shape. And here I can
slick the box here. This is the box
which is being used. It is a si shape, but you
can make it rectangular. Click and drag into your Ca. So that's how simple it is. So here I can see that it's being used and the
color is being used the brown color for the font also and the light
brown color for the box. So first, I will
update the font color, which is being used for my Main title. So this is the pont. You can simply tick
to the pont here, and it will in the toolbox, here is the a later to see the
which color is being used, and it will expand
the color box. Simply click in on the color circle and it's
showing to you the ax code. So take this axpy in paste. This is the one option
to take it in this way, or you can simply click here, and it will automatically be shown as it's the same document, but it's a different page. But sometimes you are
designing a very new so you can just simply write here the code which you want or from the color picker
and you select the phone. That's how is. And for the subtitle as well, I will be doing the
same and I will select that. Now it's great. The next thing is to bring this element behind
our this main title. I will bring it till
the W. They bring it I will drag and bring
it till the W here. What is another thing
which I notice is that, which is we need to
follow the new is capital and arrivals first
letter is capital on. So I will just select
the new from the text. For doing it, so I will select the whole text, select new only. After selecting, here is the upper case tool from
the top menu selected. So now I already make it new. Now we need a color
for this box. So we need a light brown color. I will simply select the
element which is being used, and then click Clar
and pick the color, which is being used the same
way which we did before. So this time, I
will do it quicker. And here I will just simply
write the at code and yes. So we got the I will
just bring it till this above this E line, the way they create it. So it will be similar, and I spent it the
same way they have it. Okay. So now we got our first element into
our design and we have been written the the
brand name itself as well. Okay. So the next step is, here we can see the font is have some specific
spacing line spacing. I could see that it's not
a normal spacing as this. So just select the font, click the spacing here
from the toolbox, and here it says 1.12
is a line spacing, and letter spacing is one. I will do the same. I'll
select the font spacing, and I'll say here 1.2, and the letter spacing is one. So now we are ready
with our phone, and I will align this also. So we are good to go for our
main section is main title, subheading and the
first element design. So now we need a second
We need the second box, which is about our offer
that what percentage, we are giving a discount for
our new arrival products. I will create this element here from the same
element section. I will drag the square
box into the screen. And here I will make
the box as strictly. So I will align
it the way it is. And here we can see
it's supposed to be a little bit of
the font and this. I will just bring it
a little bit up now. This And then we need
this box for our offer. So simply my box is ready. And now I need to write this
offer on top of the box. So we will use the
same phone is Droid to write the offer
on the box itself. Well, so I have selected the
box and it is ready here. Now I need to write
the phone on it. So for writing it, I will
simply select the textb again. And I will start writing at 20%. And then I will bring
it on top of it, and then select the white
color as being used. First, I will select the font, which is strod cold, and the color is white. So I will select the color
from the top menu white. And the size which
they're using is 80.1. I will simply select here 80.1
font to make it something. Similar. And I can see the box
is still the shirt itself. I will align this as
it's supposed to be, and it's italic, I will
make it italic, as well. So now we got our the box
with the color itself. So the next thing is,
we just make sure the color which we are
using is exactly the color. So as it's it is important
to show as it should be. I will just s the color. So now I pick the exact
colors as I can see, it's a bit lighter color
as we used earlier. So now the next thing
is we need to do to write an off 20% off. So I will select the phone here back and I will
rise and off here, and I will align it to the left. As per the offer. And
then I will select the de font italic, and the color which is being
used, it's a white or. So now we got our the
second box also as it is, we need to make
it a tal it well. And it's bold as well. I will just bold. Now we are go to
go. We got our box. I can see the box is a bit larger from the top
and from the bottom. So now we got our left
side design as well. So Almost the half
section we have covered. The next thing we need is
this line or boxes element. I will drag it from the element
section again, the boxes, and I will bring the
box here very quickly, and I will resize
it as it should be. And we need two boxes. So the second is simply for PP and it and align it the
way it seems to be, and it's a bit thinner as
compared to the next one also. So before you copy
decide the design, I will just bring
the same as above. Why? Because I want to make
it a similar design concept. And here we are bit to. Now we need to select the color. This is the color of
the upper element. I will select the color,
which is being used. Here, and I will give a
color to this element. This is elements is a power of design
definitely in Kenwa, and it depends how good you are to play with the elements. Here we almost design our
left side. We are very good. Now we need to add a picture for this
for adding a picture. I definitely prefer that do
not bring a picture directly. I prefer to use a frames. So I will bring a frame here, Dragon draw because frame
is something where you can fit the pictures which you want, and you will not need
to resize it again. I will bring it a
little bit left side this as we need some
space for our picture. So for doing it, select the element
itself. Now we are good. We bring it and the picture
is above this element design. I'll bring it a little bit
above to the Aliment design, and we are good here
with a picture. I will expend it till the
design element, which use it. Okay. So the next thing we
want to do to bring the image, I will simply go to my
upload section where all the images are being shown
that image which we use. I will simply select
the image which I want, and I will drag to my frame, and it will be fit
automatically. So this is the good thing is. So now we got our main image
of our new arrival product. So the next thing
we need to do is to bring this elements. So these two elements
we need also. So as we can see, is the same colors
being used like this? Okay. So I can use
this element back again as it has
this color itself. I do not need to bring it from
the element design itself. And here I can see that it's behind the picture
just simply click, double right click or
select this element. And then after layers,
click to the layers. As I want to take it to the
back side, click to the back, and it will come to the sells
and expand it as it is. Yeah. So we giving back
his design this work, and we need one more element
here on top for doing it, so I will simply copy and
paste this same design, and I will bring it here. And then I spend it to the
up and reshape it as it is. So this is how we can
use the element and resize it as many
time we want to use. Now I need to back it
to the design itself, so we are good to go with
our this element itself. Now the next thing
we need this circle. For having this circle,
I will click to the element back again,
and it's a shape. So for having it shaped, this is a circle shape. I will click and drag
to the screen back, and now we cat this
circle screen itself. Okay. So the next thing is, whenever you want to expand it, try to drag it from
the corners itself. I got the circle
hair to my screen, and I need a color exactly the
color which is being used, is the same color, which is be used to our
elements itself. I will just take
the exact color. And definitely the
colors are the beam. The colors are used
are always saved here. So you can see here, once I click and click
to the shape here, once you click to
the shapes here, we can select the color.
I will select the color. Here. And here I can see the colors which
is being used here. These are the colors being used. This is the light color which we use for other elements also. I will take it. I
will use the layer and I will bring it back
to my picture back again. And here we can see that we will align
it as it should be. And now we are good to go. So the next thing
is we need here the company domain name, the site name for our e store. So I will simply copy
and paste it here, and I will bring it
slim fifth here. I will name it as it should be and make it a sizing as
you want, 27 itself. If you want a talc, you
can use a tal or you can keep it as it
is, and here also, it should be dried as to be consistent to
our design concept. Now we are ready with
our custom design. The design which we use
from the template from the. I can say here, this
is the custom design, and this is the preset
which we use it. So now let's see
how both look like. So I can see here both are
quite identical and looks very good that we may get
exactly both designs. We have been created. First, we use as a template. Second, we now we got to
know that how to create a creative custom post
with the use of elements, pictures, frames, the font. So I hope that you
guys will try this to make some custom
design and we'll share in the projects community to
see you in the next side.
